Troutdale sits at the mouth of the Gorge where I-84 traffic and the Historic Highway meet. Wind, weather and the grades heading east are hard on vehicles, and the Exit 17 area is the most common pickup point.
Most Troutdale calls fall into the same handful of situations: a battery that gave up overnight, keys locked in a running car, a flat on a road with no shoulder, an empty tank further from a station than it looked, or a vehicle that is simply not going anywhere under its own power. All of them start with the same phone call.
I-84 Exit 17, Historic Columbia River Highway, 257th Avenue and the surrounding county roads and residential streets. If you are somewhere awkward, a farm entrance, a gravel drive, an underground garage or a stretch with no shoulder, say so on the phone. It changes which truck we send and how long it takes.
The single biggest thing that slows a call down is not knowing exactly where you are. A dropped pin from your phone is best. A cross street, a mile marker, a business name or a landmark all work too. Which direction you were heading matters on divided roads, because the wrong side of a highway is a long way around.
Call as soon as you know you are not driving away. Waiting to see if it fixes itself just moves the same call later into a worse hour. When you get us, have three things ready and we can usually dispatch inside the same conversation.
We dispatch from 21158 OR-99E in Aurora, which is roughly central to the corridor between Salem and Portland. We will tell you a realistic arrival window when you call. If another company can get to you faster, we would rather say that than leave you waiting on the shoulder of a road for the sake of a booking.

It depends on where in Troutdale you are and what is already running. Call and we will give you a realistic window rather than a number designed to make you feel better. Tell us the nearest cross street or drop a pin so we can route the closest truck.
